You have no idea who that is do you? Wait, check that. You have no clue how the Iron Man comics ARE do you? The whole point in the comics is Tony Stark trying to right the wrongs of his family and people that hate him try to take his technology to beat him. Jesus fucking Christ do some damn research before making a stupid comment like this.
The guy with the "glowey circle energy thing" as you said is Ivan Vanko aka Whiplash. Ivan Vanko is the son of Anton Vanko (in the movie)... in the comics, Anton is the Crimson Dynamo who outside of maybe The Mandarin is one of Iron Man's primary antagonist. Think, Magneto essentially. Mickey Rourke is playing Ivan which is fucking badass and Whiplash is fucking insane in the comics with what he does.
My only sad face portion is that Don Cheadle is replacing Terrence Howard. Don't get me wrong Cheadle is an AMAZING actor but I though Howard did a great job as Rhodes. At least with Rhodes still around we get to see WAR MACHINE!!!!
The real War Machine not the dbag MMA guy who changed his name legally to War Machine and is now a pornstar.
I basically explained how Whiplash in this one is a combo plate of Whiplash from the comics and some of Crimson Dynamo (his dad in the comics) are meshed together in the film.
I wouldn't say that yet. It seems like the creators know a lot about the marvel universe. There will always be "artistic freedom" to make a story line 50+ years running work as a present day film.
